OIFNET will make its best effort to deliver all products in a timely manner. Due to customs inspections and shipping requirements outside the US, OIFNET, Inc cannot guarantee delivery of any product within a specific time frame.

Once the product is received by you and in operation no refund will be issued. Products that have not been opened or used may be returned to OIFNET at customer's expense for a refund less any shipping charges. OIFNET must receive the equipment in it's new and unused condition with all original factory packaging before refund is issued. All returns must receive an RMA number before being returned to OIFNET.

All prices on the OIFNET website are in USD (US Dollars). OIFNET reserves the right to change the monthly service fee pricing upon a 30 day written notice posted here on the OIFNET website and/or notice sent via email to the email address of record for the service account. You should frequently check the OIFNET news and current price pages for any changes that may affect your billing and/or cost of service.

It has become OIFNET company policy to require all VSAT service accounts to have a credit card on file for automatic billing. All service accounts will be automatically billed to the credit card on file on the 23rd of each month for the upcoming month of service. Any invoices not paid in full by the 1st of the month will result in the NOC placing a block on your service. A $250 reconnection fee will be charged by the NOC before service will be restored. The reconnection fee cannot be waived by any OIFNET personnel.

By signing up for service with OIFNET you are agreeing to have OIFNET automatically bill your credit card of record each month in the amount equal to your monthly service fee plus any and all late fees and reconnection fees due on the account.

All listed service plans offered by OIFNET are on Contended Ratio Service bases and are offered through various Satellite Service Providers. The advertised service speeds and daily limits offered are those as published by the Satellite Service Provider. OIFNET is a VAR (Value Added Reseller) for multiple Satellite Service Providers and has no control over actual service speeds and daily limits and as such cannot guarantee any of the listed speeds and daily limits provided from the Satellite Service Providers.
